韩建国绑架命案真相曝光
世界日报编译组多伦多11日电/吴国伟等人被控绑架、杀害华裔地产经纪韩建国案，随着本周法庭审理此案的数名帮凶，案情终于一一展现在人们面前。
此案发生在去年1月19日，检察机构指控吴国伟及其七名共谋者以购屋为名，绑架韩建国及屋主费学军。事后费建军侥幸获释，韩建国则失踪。经过警方明查暗访，七名帮凶陆续落网，并于去年7月在万锦市一幢住宅地下室水泥地下挖出韩建国的遗骸。然而，此案主谋吴国伟迄今在逃，为加拿大遭通缉的十大要犯之一。
★吴国伟预谋 同时绑架两人
韩建国惨死案的大致经过，华文和主流媒体均已报导过，可是在本周该案被告马利克、崔塔诺夫受审期间，全案详情才原原本本公诸于众，也澄清了一些谬误。如之前媒体认为吴国伟一伙绑架、勒索的目标是豪宅主人费学军，韩建国只是遭株连，但呈堂证据显示，吴国伟早就计划韩、费两人一起绑，以索取双倍的赎金。
据多伦多星报电子版11日报导，2011年1月18日晚上，亦即案发的前一天晚上，吴国伟与韩建国共进晚餐。1月19日，韩建国和费学军在后者拥有的密西沙加市菲萨斯顿街1801号与吴国伟见面，签署伍国伟以238万元购买这幢拥有15个房间豪宅的合约。
自然，所谓购屋签约只是个钓饵，吴国伟是想藉机将韩、费二人一网打尽，因此早已租赁一辆红色厢型车，在里面埋伏着包括马利克、崔塔诺夫在内的五名蒙面帮凶，守候在费家门外准备动手。在吴、韩、费三人喝完茶后，将车库门打开，等到那辆厢型车一进入车库，手持汽枪、警棍和锤子的匪徒们蜂涌而出，迅速制服目瞪口呆的韩、费二人。将两名受害者反绑起来，再蒙上他们眼睛后，把他们扔进厢型车，直驶万锦市一幢住宅。
★遭勒赎250万元 韩担心被撕票
到了万锦市那幢住宅后，韩、费二人被铁链锁在未经装修的地下室内。在这个窗口全部堵上、暗无天日的地下室，此后的七天内，在吴国伟向韩、费的家人索取250万元赎金的同时，两名受害者始终被蒙着双眼，分别以铁链锁在两张躺椅上。吴国伟则安排手下人，轮流值班看守。
韩建国始终担心，即使他的家人将赎金付给吴国伟，心狠手辣的吴国伟仍可能撕票，因此韩建国每回见到吴国伟都会询问，如果支付了赎金，是否真的可以饶他一命。
当得知肉票的家属已将大约33万元电汇到吴国伟在中国开设的一个银行帐户时，吴国伟等人欢呼起来。
2011年1月26日中午时分，韩建国说要上厕所，因为地下室内没有厕所，看守他的马利克花了约7分钟，才将手脚都被铁链锁着的韩建国拽上一楼。想不到，才到一楼，韩建国便好像心脏病发作，马利克立即让他躺下，并试图给他喝水，可是韩建国全部肌肉僵硬起来，随即不再动弹。马利克见状，连忙设法施行心肺复苏术（CPR）。
在一片混乱中，一名看守问是不是要致电911求救，但另一个看守立即骂他：“你发疯了吗？”
45分钟后，吴国伟赶到，他立即为韩建国施行心肺复苏术，但那早已是马后炮了。
★费允替伍作证 交付赎金获释
吴国伟随之将此事告诉费学军，要费将来为他证明，韩建国死时，他不在现场。费学军担心吴国伟等人会对他下毒手，因而对吴国伟说，如果他也死了，将来就无法为吴国伟作证。在费学军承诺继续支付赎金后，吴国伟便释放了费学军。
放了费学军，吴国伟他们将万锦市住宅地下室的水泥地撬开，将套着塑胶垃圾袋的韩建国尸体埋进去，然后胡乱封上洞口。
去年7月，在捕获参与处理韩建国尸体的疑犯后，7月11日，约克郡警方才起出韩的遗骸。法医的验尸结论为：由禁锢引起的精神压力也是死因之一。
警方纪录显示，吴国伟于1987年抵达加拿大，有注册就读加拿大高中的纪录，也曾在东区华埠的中餐厅做过服务生，并于1990年获得永久居民身分。曾使用过多达27个化名的伍国伟，劣迹斑斑，在1993至2008年间，因犯罪八次遭多伦多警方及约克郡警方逮捕，触犯的罪行包括诈欺、偷窃及危险驾驶。
韩建国案两被告认罪
死前遭囚禁地下室绑手脚心脏病发死亡
星岛日报/著名华裔地产经纪韩建国绑架及死亡案开审，案中其中两名被告认罪候判。庭上又透露，两名受害人被囚禁在地下室期间，手脚全程系上锁链，只能爬楼梯上厕所。案中两名被告Sohaib Malik及Mikhail Troutanov，承认两项绑架罪，Malik再承认一项误杀罪名，两人候判。另外四名嫌犯，将在下周一进行初审听证（Preliminary hearing），一人则被撒消控罪。至于主犯伍国伟则仍然在逃。
在宾顿市法院宣读的控辩双方案情同意书（Agreed Statement of Facts），根据其中两名嫌犯的认罪口供，描画了绑架后事主被囚禁一周的情况，以及手脚被系锁链的韩建国，如何心脏病发死亡。曾化名Louis Chen的伍国伟，曾花数月跟踪华裔商人费学军（Johnny Xiu Jun Fei），了解其行踪及家庭资料。他之后透过著名万锦市地产经纪韩建国，要求购买费学军在密市一间价值238万元豪宅，借此以接近目标。
匪曾建议叫救护车
本年1月19日，伍伙同另外七个人，将到豪宅落实交易韩费二人掳走。绑架前一晚，伍国伟还相约韩建国晚饭。翌日费韩二人，便被匿藏在豪宅外一辆红色客货车内的五名蒙面匪徒，冲入屋内并以气枪、伸缩棍及铁锤制伏。两人蒙眼被胶纸封口，以胶带绑住双手，被拖上该客货车再运往万锦市的藏参地点。
主控官David Maylor在庭上指，韩费二人被带往一间未完成装修的住宅地下室。伍及货车司机外出购买锁头、铁链及食物。至于二人一直被锁住及蒙眼，只能爬上楼梯如厕。伍国伟向二人要求共250万赎金，韩被指每次看见伍，都向他询问如付赎金能否活命，而费则被多次殴打。绑匪之后收到首笔33万元赎款后，并即时庆祝。
1月26日中午，韩在如厕期间抽筋，Malik让他躺着休息。后来他欲扶韩起身喝水，发现韩肌肉僵硬并失去知觉。有绑匪建议打911召救护车，但被制止。Malik及在45分钟后才到达的伍国伟，先后对韩急救，但韩已返魂乏术。伍之后要求费为他做证，指韩死时自己不在现场。费以为自己必死，向伍说如他死了便不能作证，但伍并无杀费，并在费承诺交出更多赎金后释放他。
法医报告指出，韩的死亡是由囚禁时的压力导致。
十大通缉重犯伍国伟仍在逃
星岛日报/涉嫌与绑架案有关、被全国通缉的45岁华裔男子伍国伟，是一名职业罪犯。他是广东开平人，交际手腕十分好，曾经化名二十多个不同姓名，常带肩带手提袋及无框眼镜，警方指他与亚洲有组织罪行集团有关。
有持械及武力前科
伍国伟于1987年从中国抵达多市读书，于1990年取得居留权，但一直没有入籍成为公民。伍常向人炫耀财富以争取他人信任，并喜欢到色情场所消遣。他平常以先租后买方式租用名贵房车。警方于2003年吊销他的驾驶执照，他曾有使用武力前科，曾经持械及高危险逃走纪录，是警方的熟悉人物。
警方形容伍是一名十分自信的人，根据他以往行事模式，估计他会留在加国，就算在当地落网也比较容易脱罪，相反如被中国公安拘捕或被判死刑。中方亦已对伍发出通缉令。皮尔区警方相信，他仍然匿藏在大多伦多或邻近地区。
警方提醒民众切勿协助或窝藏伍国伟，否则会被控以严重刑事罪名。
Two men admit roles in high-profile kidnapping of Johnny Fei and Markham real estate agent Tony Han who died of a heart attack while confined
Betsy Powell
Courts Bureau
TORONTO STAR
A man on Canada’s most wanted list, Guo Wei Wu, spent months methodically plotting to kidnap businessman Johnny Fei, watching his movements and learning details of his family life, a court has heard.
Then, using the false name Louis Chen, Wu allegedly sapproached well-known Markham real estate agent Jianguo (Tony) Han about buying Fei’s mansion at 1801 Featherston Dr. in Mississauga for $2.38 million.
On Jan. 19, 2011, Wu and seven accomplices abducted Fei and Han from the 15-room house, where they had gone to finalize the sale.
The chilling details of their week in captivity, and Han’s subsequent heart-attack death with his feet and hands locked in chains, were outlined in an agreed statement of facts read in a Brampton courtroom earlier this week when two men admitted their roles in the high-profile crime.
Sohaib Malik and Mikhail Troutanov pleaded guilty to two counts of kidnapping, while Malik also pleaded guilty to manslaughter. They have yet to be sentenced. A preliminary hearing for four other accused is scheduled to begin Monday. The Crown has withdrawn charges against one man.
But the mastermind, a career criminal known for carrying designer shoulder bags and wearing glasses without lenses, remains at large. Police have said Wu has ties to Asian organized crime groups in Canada and China.
When Fei and Han vanished last year, Peel police embarked on an extensive search unaware the pair were being held in the basement of a detached home at 163 Edward Jeffreys in Markham. Wu leased it under the name Hao Li.
Reports after their disappearance suggested Fei was the target and Han was simply in the wrong place.
But according to the facts read into court — and acknowledged under oath by Malik and Troutanov — Han also became a target while handling the sale of the Mississauga mansion.
The night before the kidnapping, Wu had dinner with Han.
The following day, Fei and Han, both in their 40s, met Wu at the Featherston address, near Mississauga Rd. and Dundas St. W. Fei made tea, unaware of the rented red van lurking outside. Inside, five masked men, including Malik and Troutanov, lay hidden beneath stolen hotel bed sheets.
Within a few minutes, the garage door opened, and the men rushed into the house armed with a bb handgun, extendable baton and hammer. They tackled Han. Fei was beaten and struck in the back with a hammer.
The kidnappers blindfolded the pair, covered their mouths with duct tape, and binded their hands with zip ties. They were dragged into the van and driven to the Markham house.
There, Fei and Han were taken to an unfinished basement with cardboard-covered windows, while Wu and van driver went out to get chains, locks and pizza, Crown attorney David Maylor told court.
For the next seven days, the two men stayed chained and blindfolded while Wu demanded a total of $2.5 million in ransom money from the families of both men in China and Canada.
The kidnappers took turns watching the prisoners, whom Wu had tied to reclining lawn chairs.
“Mr. Malik found the basement eerie at all times and more so when he was in the basement alone with the victims,” Maylor said.
They were given water and food, cooked by one of the kidnappers. Fei fared the worse. He was beaten several times and had to crawl, blindfolded, up the wooden basement stairs to use the washoom. Han got an escort.
Every time Han saw Wu, he asked if his life would be spared if ransom was paid.
The kidnappers celebrated when they learned approximately $330,000 had been wired to a bank account in China.
Around lunchtime on Jan. 26, Han asked to use the washroom. Still chained by both hands and feet, it took Malik seven minutes to guide him upstairs. Once there, he made noises and appeared to be suffering cramps, court was told. He was permitted to lie down.
Malik pulled Han up to allow him to sip some water but Han’s muscles tensed up and he stopped moving. Malik tried to perform CPR.
One of the captors asked if they should call 911.
“Are you crazy,” another responded.
Wu arrived 45 minutes later and performed CPR on Han without success, Maylor said.
When Wu told Fei what happened, he asked him to be his witness and confirm he was not present when Han died.
“Mr. Fei, thinking he might be killed as well, responded that he could not be a witness if he was dead,” the prosecutor said.
Wu agreed to release Fei after he promised to come up with more money.
Later on Jan. 26, Fei was dumped in the parking lot outside the Keg at 1977 Leslie Street where he was found crawling toward the restaurant. He was treated in hospital for severe bruising and required stitches to his torso.
Back in Markham, the kidnappers dug a large hole in the cement floor of the basement and placed two garbage bags containing Han’s remains, which weren’t located, exhumed and identified until July 11, 2011.
A forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Pollanen, concluded “ . . . the circumstances surrounding Mr. Han’s death point to detention-related stress as a contributing factor in his death.”
Fei, it turns out, was not as wealthy as Wu figured.
Chinese authorities have issued a warrant for his arrest in his home country, Maylor told court. He didn’t elaborate, except to say Fei had a business that ran into problems and collapsed in 2008.
